Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Forum devoted to track & field items of an historical nature.
Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Talking with a friend, we wonder what the current crop, from Bolt on down, could do if you plopped them in Bob Hayes' lane 1 (the chewed up one) on the Tokyo OG cinder track.
I'm guessing that Bolt and Blake would run in the 9.9s, but no one else could break 10 (he ran 10.06).
Whatcha think?
The next question is - what could they do if they had Hayes' lack of modern training methods or biomechanical feedback (he galloped more than ran). I sincerely think no one could break 10.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
All things being equal, Hayes would run competitively with the current crop of sprinters.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Hayes would win because power counted more on those crappy tracks. Blake might beat Bolt.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Don't know - for so many years I just thought Hayes was GOAT by acclamation, but I gotta give it to Bolt now.
But Hayes in 2012, modern training methods, modern tracks, modern equipment vs. Bolt - I sure would like to see that one.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Listen, with all respect to the 'bullet', Up to this point, if you bring them all up from the dead, evryone is chasing Bolt, and if he is at his very best, they would be trailing him by a long way too.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
I don't know that Bullet would be trailing him by a "long way," although I think Bolt would win. I think Bolt is greatest sprinter ever, but Hayes was prior to him. I'd sure love to be able to see that race, with both of them at their best.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Add in modern technical training for Hayes and it would be a TIGHT race (which, sigh, Bolt still wins)
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
For decades I was convinced I'd never rate anybody ahead of Hayes, but he's not remotely in Bolt's league.
Another one bites the dust.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Hayes to me had it all, every great sprinter after him was great because he had some feature of Hayes and every flaw that a sprinter had was because they lacked a Hayes-like quality... And then fast forward to Bolt, hard to see him not running at least a 9.9 on that Tokyo track back in '64. But I dont think that Hayes would be getting smoked by anyone, not even Bolt. Put Hayes in the same training stable as Bolt and I suspect there would not be more than a step and a half between them. That is saying quite allot about the greatness of Bolt.
Regarding a dirt track, hard to understand that Bolt would be disadvantaged on a dirt track relative to the shorter more powerful sprinters. Seems to me that it could be just the opposite with the taller sprinters faring better on dirt than the shorter stepping counterparts. Id like to understand more about this. Some physicists and mechanics types should weigh in regarding the cinder loss mechanisms.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Mostly semantics I think, but I disagree. As stated I think Bolt is the GOAT, but I think the only other guy in his league is Bob Hayes.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Hayes used to be in his league, but after Berlin he got relegated
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
To illuminate, consider the total sprint dominance of Bolt; He has done to the 200 exactly what he did to the 100. He has eclipsed Hayes at 100m and by an even greater margin eclipsed Johnson at 200m. Hayes never did in the 200 what he did at 100m. Who would have expected that the passing of time would make the determination of a goat anything but less clear. Reasonable people were bound to disagree and moreso as more names entered the mix. Yet here we are, all need for imagination has been removed and all the stat haggling is swept away, it is now impossible to deny that Bolt is the sprint goat.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Hayes would win because power counted more on those crappy tracks. Blake might beat Bolt.
The supposed "crappy tracks" were by no means universal: Most of the top California tracks were not cinder but crushed brick or similar packed substance, so didn't "give" like looser cinders. In fact, they were often too hard, esp. in comparison w/ modern, optimal rebound surfaces.
Smith & Co. were running (in approx. order of quality) at Fresno, Modesto, Compton, Mt. Sac, the Coliseum, Stanford and even San Jose (Santa Barbara CC, down by the harbor, wasn't so bad either). Sorry, never ran at Edwards Field (Cal).
So, don't overlook the rebound parameter, along w/ the Spikes (Pin as opposed to huge "Fangs") and the heavier shoes they required--not that much heavier, as Adidas led the way to lighter (along w/ Puma, w/ Adi Dassler's brother as CEO)
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Can you please clarify your assessment of the quality of the tracks, are you saying that Fresno was the best of the bunch and Stanford the worse ? Or was it the other way around?
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Order was top-down, admittedly subjective, from personal experience. Fresno & Modesto were plenty similar; forgot Bakersfield, site of AAU and other meets; nothing wrong w/ Stanford, just a SoCal bias. The Coliseum track had various incarnations: The old one was ripped up (58?) so the Coliseum could host the Dodgers while Chavez Ravine was under construction.
Herb Elliott (Edit: I'd written McKenley, the Jamaican Sprinter) ran sub-4 minutes on the rough grass in a meet hosted by Helms Bakeries, which had its own T & F Hall of Fame.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
I may have relegated Hayes, but my list of all-time 200 greats still has Tommie Smith at the top. Bolt 2, MJ 3.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
I think that Bob Hayes still remains the reference and has not been smashed away...
Look :
- I'm not a specialist, but cinder tracks were certainly 0.2 second slower than our modern
and sprint dedicated tracks.
Particularly on line 1 in Tokyo, on that wet cinder !
- add modern training, all year long, nutrition and equipment and medicine,
we are not far from another 0.2 second...
- consider professionalism, attraction of money and all modern facilities,
it's perhaps one 0.1 second less...
So, 10.06 - 0.5 is not far from 9.56 !
It is my very humble opinion and sure, I realize we have been very lucky to admire
such champions as Bob, Jim, Carl, Maurice, Asafa and Usain... waiting for the next one !
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Maybe one of the great things about track and field are the different types that can get the job done, I look at King Carl and see a totally different morphology than Bob Hayes and yet to me there was never a more spectacular 100m performance than Carl's 1984 win. That was the most mesmerizing closing 40 yards I have ever seen.
Likewise consider MJ, who could look at him and think that he was a serious 200/400m man, he ran in a manner reminiscent of an overweight executive shuffling through an airport. But man he just blew past the gracile guys like they were standing still. We really do have alot to be thankful for as fans.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
This question has been done a lot of times on these forums.
As someone (ZatOpek?) once pointed out, there is actually zero hard research out there measuring the time difference between 'natural' (cinders etc) and 'synthetic' tracks.
We just don't know. Most speculate that synthetic tracks are considerably faster. The most common quote in this regard is (I think) from Ron Clarke who thought that synthetic was worth about 1 second per lap, but its a real rough guess. I don't know if that translates to 0.25 seconds for the 100 meters. Of course, synthetic tracks may have improved since those that Clarke ran on as well.
Until someone actually does a proper study then this issue will come down to a matter of which athlete is your favourite. If you are a fan of Hayes, then you will say, "Hayes ran 10.06 in Tokyo in a chewed up ciders lane - that's worth 0.3-0.4 seconds, making him a 9.66-9.76 runner!" On the other hand, if you are a fan of Bolt, then you will say, "Cinders is only worth 0.1 seconds at most - Bolt would beat Hayes easily".
I can't see the discussion going any further than that (i.e. the discussion goes nowhere). Its a pity - we can come up with good estimates for the effect of wind and altitude but not track type.
(Actually, I think there is a bigger difference between modern tracks and the early synthetic tracks of '68 and '72 than the difference between those early synthetics and cinders ). I have no way to prove it though.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
John sez: bigger difference between modern tracks and the early synthetic tracks of '68 and '72 than the difference between those early synthetics and cinders ).
Good point; I might concur had you not conflated "cinders" with the other "natural" materials I discussed in detail above. In any case, some of those early synthetics were too hard, while some were soft, just crushed up rubber fibers--although the latter were more relegated to PV and LJ/TJ Runways. That's what we had at USC in the late 50s. PV & HJ pits were bags of sponge rubber.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
I don't know if there have been scientific studies of the relative merits of cinder/dirt vs various synthetic tracks but anyone who had run seriously on both surfaces knows almost any synthetic track is "faster" than cinders.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Agreed, but John still has a valid point: Modernday Synthetic Tracks, with their optimal "rebound"--even if optimal for Distance is not the same as for Sprints/Hurdles--are significantly faster than the widely varying early synthetics. Some of those were too hard, just as some HS tracks remain so.
Furthermore, the continuing conflation of Cinders with the far superior California "Dirt" of the 60s (Even Sanger, not mentioned because no major meets held there) only serves to muddle the discussion, however hypothetical.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
I think it is harder to relegate Hayes in the 100 than Smith in the 200 but I'll relegate them both.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Yes, if anything is true about this topic its that both 'natural' (yeah, I included cinders there ... bit of a stretch I guess) and 'synthetic' tracks varied a LOT prior to more standard synthetic tracks at big meets now.
Reading other threads there are a lot of comments like, "I ran my best time on cinders and some of my worst times on synthetic". That seems entirely correct. A good cinders track was very fast and bad synthetic was slow. I doubt that the early synthetic tracks were ever intended to be faster than cinders, just more reliable in a range of weather conditions - they were often called 'all weather' tracks. Of course, once they started down that path then the technology took over and they got faster and faster.
One huge problem in doing any analysis is that the Olympic finals during the change to synthetic were somehow affected by other stuff which makes time comparisons difficult: Mexico by altitude and Munich by Hart/Robinson absence. Montreal was reasonably unaffected (Leonard's absence probably the main thing) but Moscow has these wind readings which are not credible. By the time you get to LA in 1984 I think the technology has moved on, although I would love some more details on the track technology during that 1972-1984 period!
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
That was my experience and it seems to be reasonably well founded on the most basic physics. Fundamentally the dirt cinder tracks are (roughly speaking) unconsolidated sediments, they do not support strains and stresses, they are not elastic. The more they are packed the better they should perform. Otherwise they are very lossy. It is hard for me to imagine any cinder track comparing favorably with most synthetic surface.
Someone may very well have had their best performance on a cinder track, ( I had my HS 440 PR on a beat up cinder track) but we ran 80% of the time on cinder so it is unlikely that it was due to the cinder being superior to the all weather track.
I can recall one synthetic track (circa early 80s) , it wasnt much different than asphalt pavement used on roads. Year in and year out, athletes had 100y and 220y PRs on that track. There were a few synthetic tracks (laid down in the 70s) that seemed a bit lossy, but none were as lossy as cinder.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Remember that, for the purposes of much of the discussion of this thread (Hayes v Bolt), the Tokyo track was not really cinders, but more a soft red clay that turned into mush in the rain, and after the 20K walkers had ruined the 1st lane for Hayes (and the 10K had been run there the day before). I still don't really know how much that would have affected the time, but it certainly wouldn't have helped it.
I'll take a guess and say it added 1.7 seconds to his time and he would have run 8.35 - crushing Bolt (take that EGH!) (I liked Hayes)
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
It is plausible that many PBs were set on cinders/dirt. I suspect most were set when the runner was in his/her prime before the advent of synthetic tracks.
Personal example: Circa 1950, I was running 9.7y on cinders. When I entered Master's competition in 1971-72, I ran 10.2y on cinders and 11.0m on synthetic.
Officially hand timed and from memory..Maybe not scientific but convinced me synthetic is faster.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Bill - 8.35 for Hayes may not be the most scientific guess you've ever made. I also liked Hayes, and was lucky enough to meet him once (in '88). He told me then that had he run the final of the 100 like he ran the relay he would have run 9.80. I think he'd have been near 9.90 (he gained 6m on Delecour who was in 10.50-ish form). Moving from Tokyo to the London surface could have helped him by a fifth of a second, getting him to 9.70 - but behind Bolt [who is simply the best we've yet seen]
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
OK, OK, maybe he would have only run around 8.45
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Bolt would have smoked Hayes, imo. All of the London medallist would have, and so would Tyson Gay and a healthy Asafa Powell. And this idea that some how he was disadvantaged by 1964 training facilities...they were probably no worse than what Asafa Powell was using when he ran sub-10...by a lot.
1964 Olympics
10.06 Bob Hayes (6'0"/190)
10.23 Enrique Figuerola (5'6"/148 lbs)
10.27 Harry Jerome (5'11"/170 lbs)
I put the athletes dimensions to illustrate how likely it would have been for Figuerola to run 9.90, because that is exactly what you're projecting for both Jerome and him if (some of) you are projecting 9.5's and 9.6's for Hayes. That's not rational. Also, Hayes, by dimensions seems to be as big and as strong as ANY athlete today - there is a theoretical limit to how much stronger athletes can get you know. Bo Jackson and Herschel Walker NEVER lifted weights in high school or college. Show me another back the size of either with that speed. Matter of fact, knock 30 pounds off of Jackson and Walker and THEY smoke Hayes, too. Find another 6'0/190 athlete. Donovan Bailey was less than 190 and so was Bruny Surin. The point is that Hayes, if he were transported to the present day would not be stronger or faster. He would be the same guy running on a rubberized surface that is probably only better because it gives a consistent result race in and race out, not because it's "faster".
Jesse Owens jumped 8.13 in 19.35; Chuhei Nambi jumped 7.98 with a m/s less wind in 1931 and Sylvio Cato jumped 7.93 with no wind in 1928. I guess you guys want to extrapolate that they were the first 29 footers, too? They certainly would be competitive today as Will Claye Jumped 8.12 for a Bronze medal. But, my opinion is that the LJ is like dna trapped in amber; revealing just how far we've progressed...or not. And since the LJ was run on the same runways where ALL the competitors use the same "lane", I'm going to say that the extra shoes in lane 1 actually helped Hayes. Maybe we should be rounding his time up to Figuerola instead of down to Bolt, Blake, Gay, Powell, Green, etc.
Geezers! (and I didn't spell that wrong! )
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
yeah, synthetic tracks are not faster than dirt tracks .. makes perfect sense comports with personal theories of armchair physicists and grave diggers everywhere, it is even endorsed by an important a batonless relay guy.

Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
observations made by people who never stopped to think what ELSE could have been changing. But more importantly a user4 guy thinks, that only Hayes gets faster and all the other athletes from 1964 just stay the same.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
I never said that others dont get faster, I think both Figuerola and Jerome are standouts and would be competitive today. Heck Figuerola managed to get a medal in 1968 on a synthetic track !
Most people recognize that the synthetic track is far superior, This agrees with theory and with empirical observations from runners.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
RUNNING 10.23! Not, 9.9x! You Geezers are "flat earthers"; those "observations" are what you would LIKE to think, but NOT what it is. Theory? Theory? In practice, I don't think it was .2s or more faster.
Also, that lane 1 didn't look much different than the other lanes http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgkVxoixMm8
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
You act like YOU are citing facts, which of course, you are not. Yours is also pure speculation.
From that video there is NO way you can tell the condition of Lane 1. It was undoubted 'well-prepared', but as Lane 1, it was also more heavily torn up.
I am the first to admit that we geezers look at the past with rose-colored classes and think (wish) that our heroes could 'lace 'em up' with the best today. For the most part, we are wrong. But there are exceptions and The Bullet is definitely one of them. He was a Beast of the highest magnitude.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Unlike you, Marlow, I began my point with the initials for the words "in my opinion"
Put down your walker! The crazy part is that you and the geezer squad actually think that you have presented facts. You haven't - which you admit (thank heavens). You can't say for certain how torn up lane 1 and i bet it's similar to the people who initially said Bolt would have run 9.50 in Beijing if he didn't stop to do the Majorette salute. It's an old wives tale, by non-old wives (and probably some old wives, too). Don't doubt Hayes was a beast, and I do think he could have been Olympic Champion in say, 1992, but I do not think that if the same athlete had grown up 24 years later that he would have crushed Christie, even though I think Hayes was a HIGH-9.8 guy. He might have won, but it wasn't going to be a '08/'09-Bolt performance. He wasn't going to run 9.5, 9.6 and probably not 9.7 - IN MY OPINION. Even watching Hayes...technically he is good. Yes, he has some serious upper torso torque, but he's really good with what's going on below the waste (Bolt is another nightmare so we can leave that for another day). I think he's at best a 9.83 guy...maybe he beats Donovan in '96, but maybe he don't.
One other thing that bothers me about this argument is when people cite "modern coaching". Hell, the more coaches learn the more they seem to go back to what Lydiard, Winter and Bowerman were saying 400 years ago. Like the surface, and the nutrition (which was better back then as food was not all processed), and the weights it's just one other thing that is way overblown. Hayes 9.83 and I'm being generous.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
Can you support your theory that running on cinder is equal to running on a synthetic surface with anything other than huffing and puffing? Can you provide some reason to believe contrary to all accounts that the loss mechanisms are equivalent ? Do you know what the standards are for todays synthetic surfaces ? do you know how a cinder track would compare ?
Can you give us one athlete from the transition era that said there was no difference between them ?
Are you serious or are you just being provocative ?
Figuerola got a silver medal in the 4X100. Im going to guess that Figuerola was at his best in 1964 and not nearly as good in 1968 at 30 years of age. I say so based on my own conversion of his 10.23A syn. to about a 10.5 nonA cinder. His countryman Silvio Leonard 10 years later gave us the first non-mexico city 9.9 and another sliver at 100m, he was about 5'9 I think.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
1. You're oversimplifying what I'm saying? I'm not saying that it's equal in all cases, but it's not a guaranteed .2-.3 improvement. I've seen where athletes have raced on well manicured GRASS and the times were nearly exact with modern surfaces (Darrell Green on grass)
2. I have every reason to believe otherwise. Yes times have improved, but not generally. The times being run in the 60's by countries that are not typical sprint powers have not improved.
3. knowing what the standards are for todays is a trickbag. What matters is how fast the athletes run, or can run, not the coefficient of slip numbers created by the marketing departments of BASF and Mondo.
4. You're kidding right? That's what we're debating. I'm calling BS on you geezers and you're saying you have emmpirical evidence that I believe is trumped up.
5. Now you're being patronizing. I'm sure we can find someone who ran faster on sand then they did Mondo. It's not like everyone SB's and PB's at global champs. The point is for you to prove that Hayes could beat Bolt or anyone who has run faster than 10.06. You can't. This sport, thankfully, doesn't have "degrees of difficulty" like debutante sports like diving or gymnastics.
6. Patronizing again. But let's go through it. PROVE that nutrition is better today when most doctors think supplements that not all athletes who are world beaters use gives you nothing more than expensive urine. PROVE that modern techniques would have made Hayes faster. PROVE that lane 1, in Tokyo in 1964, after x amount of races was a disadvantage. Prove that Hayes at 5'11" 190 lbs would have been at a disadvantage in strength to athletes today who are -except for Powell and Bolt and few others - lighter than Hayes and probably not as strong. You can't prove any of that, but you've asked those questions of me.
Re: Current sprinters on a cinder track?
the question of what Hayes would run today is too hard for me . While I dont think he would beat bolt i do not know all the details of what the athletes are taking in this sport, nutrition wise or otherwise so I dont want to get into that except to say that I think Hayes would be competitive in the sport today all other things being equal. Competitive means that he makes it to the finals of OG and WC.
1) If Darrel green could run 100m on grass in the same time that he could run 100m on a modern surface I will eat the grass. That sounds preposterous.
2) If you take a hard object (say a steel ball) and drop it (from some height) on today's synthetic surface and record its rebound height, you will measure as certain % loss. Drop the same ball on various dirt/cinder/clay/grass surfaces and you will see a difference in the loss relative to the synthetic surface. That difference is a rough measure of how much the runner loses in sprinting on the two surfaces. It is not the best measure it is just a measure. This agrees with the recollections of countless sprinters that ran on the two surfaces. I trust the athletes to tell me and they have weighed in time and time again.
3) For instance beach sand is probably slower than a cinder track.
4) The empirical evidence is the recollections of countless athletes that ran on the two types of surfaces in the 1960s/early 70s. Take up your case with them.
5) I never said Hayes could beat bolt but your inability to observe the most basic fact that a 2010 synthetic track is much faster than a 1960 dirt track makes me wonder... oh well.
6) modern techniques would have made Hayes or any sprinter from the past a better sprinter. All fields advance and the science of sport performance is no different.

<<Why do people get on these message boards and get into mindless rants with each other like user4 and batonlessrelay over Hayes and Bolt? I just don't see it. I like to argue the merits of the two, and I agree Bolt is now the GOAT, as much as I loved Hayes as a sprinter, but stuff like this is ridiculous. I see why you ban people.>>

Tressel to share life lessons weekly on WKYC-TV10/02/2012
Last month, Jim Tressel described the journey to success to a Forum Series audience at E.J. Thomas Hall. On Wednesday nights, he'll share many of those same points with viewers across Northeast Ohio.
Jim Tressel prepares for the first segment of "A Moment with Jim Tressel." It will be broadcast during the 7 p.m. newscast on WKYC-TV (Channel 3).
Tressel, the vice president for strategic engagement, will share life lessons during a weekly segment titled "A Moment with Jim Tressel" on the 7 p.m. newscast on WKYC-TV (Channel 3).
Tressel will tell stories about his endeavors here, and about his time on the sidelines. The stories will illustrate the larger truths about hope, character, attitude, teamwork, leadership and handling adversity.
"Jim's national championships as head football coach at Ohio State and Youngstown State universities are well-known to all," said Brooke Spectorsky, president and general manager at WKYC, "but his motivational speeches and best-selling books will be the basis of our "A Moment with Jim Tressel."
"Jim motivates with passion but leads with compassion,' added interim News Director Virgil Dominic. "We envision a weekly segment that takes daily news stories and makes them teachable moments."
Tressel taped the first segment last week.
"I'm part of a new team now at The University of Akron, and it's a really big one," Tressel says during the segment. "I'm figuring out how to harness the energy of nearly 30,000 students to move the whole team forward. The lessons I've learned, and the ones I'm learning now, I'll keep sharing with you."
President Luis Proenza says the segments will strengthen The Akron Experience.
"In his new role as our VP for strategic engagement, Jim is responsible for student success, from application and recruitment to graduation and beyond — what we are calling The Akron Experience," Proenza said. "We think his weekly television segments will only add to his community outreach and help grow The Akron Experience."
Students: If you want a chance to be featured in one of Jim Tressel's Channel 3 life lessons talks, tell us your story on Twitter or Facebook and tag it #Tresselmoment. Better yet, create and share a 1-minute video about your favorite achievements and tag it "Tresselmoment" on YouTube.

Root Earns CVU Top Performer Nod for Second Time This Year
Tuesday, October 26, 2010
Valparaiso sophomore libero Taylor Root (Jenison, Mich./Jenison), fresh off her third Horizon League Defensive Player of the Week honor of the season, has been recognized by the Collegiate Volleyball Update (CVU.com) for the second time this year as one of its Top Performers from last week.
Root, who is one of just 10 players nationally to receive multiple weekly honors from CVU so far this season, averaged 7.17 digs/set in a pair of sweeps last week. The sophomore entered the week ranked second nationally with 5.82 digs/set and, through last night's sweep at SIU Edwardsville, has 545 total digs this year, already sixth-most in a single season in program history.
Root and the rest of the Crusaders return to action Friday night at the ARC when they host Green Bay to kick off a key Horizon League weekend of play. First serve Friday night, which will be Valpo's Senior Night as well as its annual breast cancer awareness match, is slated for 7 p.m.

Learn how to reap the health benefits of this fall favorite.
With six core ingredients and only 15 minutes of active prep time, this pumpkin spiced oatmeal is the prefect choice for any fall morning!
I'm a bit of an oatmeal fanatic. Yes, it's a tad strange. But if you're going to be addicted to a breakfast food, at least I chose one of our Greatist superfoods. The tricky part is that I tend to completely despise those prepackaged instant oatmeal packets.
Oatmeal often gets a bad rap as a bland breakfast food for nursing home patients.

Women Partner Watch
A firm-by-firm look at the percentage of women elected partner at Am Law 100 and 200 firms in this year's round of promotions.
The interactive scatter chart below was born of a simple question: How many women make partner in The Am Law 100 and Second Hundred these days? Aric Press, editor in chief of American Lawyer parent ALM, kicked off his January column with that question. As it happened, having analyzed a pool of some 5,000 partners promoted since January 2008, Press had a pretty good handle on the answer: about three out of every ten. Armed with that 30 percent figure as a benchmarkand with this year's new partner season upon uswe decided to track how individual firms fared when it came to elevating women into the partnership ranks this year. Our chartwhich does not include an equity-versus-nonequity breakdownplots more than 1,000 partner promotions at more than 100 firms by percentage of women and total new partner class size. (Where two or more firms overlapped, we've made visual adjustments to the plot points.) The data we've collected so far confirm the new benchmark. We plan to update this chart as more firms announce new partners.
An analysis of newly promoted partners at some 100 Am Law firms shows that one out of three are women, that the Class of 2012's average path to partner was ten years, and that more and more lawyers are taking roundabout routes to their firm's top tiers. -- Sara Randazzo

Belly dancer Dunya (Diane McPherson) is among the performers at the party, "A Postcard from Algiers," February 15.
Step into "A Postcard From Algiers" at the Clark's February 15 Party
For Immediate Release
January 23, 2003
The exotic atmosphere of nineteenth-century French Algeria will come to life at the party "A Postcard from Algiers" at the Clark Art Institute on Saturday, February 15, at 8:00 p.m. Celebrating the opening of the special exhibition Renoir and Algeria, the festivities will include Algerian inspired décor, live entertainment, and activities throughout the evening. Guests are encouraged to wear creative costumes or festive attire. The menu includes Mediterranean hors d'oeuvres, decadent desserts, a complimentary wine bar, and creative cocktails at the "Casbah Cash Bar." Tickets are $40 per person ($30 for members of the Clark). To order tickets, call 413-458-2303, extension 324.
Partygoers will begin in the Clark's courtyard, transformed with a refreshment "oasis" in the center, featuring both savory and sweet treats by caterer Megan Moore of Lenox.
Also in the courtyard, henna artist Stephanie Rudloe of Shringara will adorn the bodies of willing guests with her designs. Rudloe practices the art of mendhi, traditionally used to decorate the hands and feet of brides to nurture fertility. The natural henna "tattoos" last about twelve days. Rudloe's work has been featured in Harper's Bazaar and New York Magazine. Her celebrity clients include Madonna, Christy Turlington, and Vera Wang.
Musical entertainment will be provided by Haig Manoukian and Souren Baronian, who will perform on the oud (a Middle Eastern lute instrument), the dumbek (hand drum), and clarinet. The New York-based duo combines Middle Eastern and jazz music. Baronian studied clarinet with Turkish master Safet Gundeger and is also an accomplished percussionist. Manoukian has played with influential Greek, Armenian, Turkish, and Arabic musicians at the famous Middle Eastern clubs on 8th Avenue in New York City. The two were founding members of the jazz fusion group Taksim and the Transition trio.
Throughout the evening belly dancer Dunya will perform in the café. Dunya (Diane McPherson) has performed widely as both Middle Eastern dancer and concert dancer throughout the United States. She has been called "the best belly dancer in the world" by The Village Voice and "a vibrant performer...an unusual and talented choreographer" by The New York Times.
The "Casbah Cash Bar" on the bridge will feature such themed drinks as the "Pepe le Moka," "Camel Chaser," and "Orange Oasis."
Attendees will have the opportunity to preview the exhibition Renoir and Algeria, which opens to the public on February 16. The Clark's great painting Mlle. Fleury in Algerian Costume by Pierre-Auguste Renoir is the inspiration for this exhibition, the first devoted to the Impressionist artist's Algerian subjects. The show will feature studio paintings done in Paris as well as landscapes, portraits, and images of life in Algeria inspired by Renoir's trips in 1881 and 1882. Organized by the Clark Art Institute with guest curator Roger Benjamin, a leading scholar of French Orientalist art, the exhibition features about 15 paintings as well as French Algerian photographs and travel postcards. Renoir and Algeria is on view February 16 through May 11. Admission is free throughout the exhibition.
The Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute is located at 225 South Street in Williamstown, Massachusetts. For more information call 413-458-2303 or visit www.clarkart.edu.

Friedrich Heß (Physiker)
Physicists on the responsibility Friedricht Tilmann Heß..part one...
It's not about the educated physicist know that is only possible in theory, Everett, so no proof of this, is absolutely crucial already that can not falsify the current inductive method according to Popper, this is also standard of education in textbooks and the prevailing view of physics. Why this was not taken into consideration? Well, it is similar to the Big Chill, who would ever live an impossible state of the universe must have occurred with a probability of 1, that is not the case. This means that operates an infinite statistics against the vague world view - the basic assumption of an uncertain world is false, so the world can not be indeterministic, so much so even to a certain extent declaration. It's not about the status of knowledge, to provide the best explainers be a new Einstein to be, it's about accepting that it was then put into a statement, with the intent that the person, in everything happens in this world is not his life preserver and commentators, he takes it out too much, like. those Russian players in flawless democracy If the Russian search engines, so to ensure that is in a completely predetermined world to acquire the explanation works no longer trust because this trust, which is requested about the choice of Russian citizens, generates an induced delusion, a Big Chill, So ultimately gigantic nuclear explosion, then this search engine would make any election fraud impossible. Remember that any statement which seek to enforce its refuted materialism as a whole, from the most general reasons it can not be true. Sun flawless as this government, as it was then just the names of some donors did not want to be named, all in honor, was also Mr Schröder and for the honor, as he called it, and so a degree of democracy was a certain new employment just flawless. In this sense the confidence of absolutely highly qualified quite a few experts is placed in the smallest selection, the basic pre-filtering must ensure from vast amounts of data, which is thus set required but human, and the students have for technical reasons can not be included, set , people will make the class in charge of their families work so the trust absolutely, as has already been promised alternative Nobel Prizes safely on the Higgs, all in the highest seriousness scientific practice just that exceeded already with completely new standards of Vertauens all previous has. Nevertheless, I would like to give the young researchers and colleagues, this is certainly flawless, albeit in a different way: In a deterministic world view was all in terms of toppling dominoes series decided, before Hitler's birth, set holistically, the tendency of the Holocaust was never aside, today, the boundaries of the camp as large as some frontier, where pregnant women starve, as the death was justified at the time in the camps with pseudo-scientific methods, ...to be continued

Builders and manufacturers have been doing some pretty cool things with plastic bottles lately. Here's one more to add to the list.
New Balance announced the launch of a line of sneakers made from 95 percent post-consumer recycled plastic bottles. The design of the newSKY shoe replaces foam, leather and virgin plastic with a fleece-like material made from recycled PET.
Plastic bottles are chopped up into flakes, heated and molded into fiber to create the strong and versatile material, known commercially as Eco-fi. It takes about 12 bottles to produce one pound of fiber and eight bottles to make each newSKY shoe, according to the company.
Designers at New Balance embraced the new material for its eco benefits but struggled initially to create a stylish and comfortable shoe made from bottles.
READ: How to Recycle Your Unwearable Tennis Shoes
"The principles of shoemaking didn't necessarily apply to this fabric," said Drew Spieth, design lead for wellness at New Balance. "It doesn't work like a regular shoe material."
A streamlined look was chosen to accommodate the fabric's unique characteristics, and design elements like a slimmer outsole were borrowed from the NB Minimus to minimize waste and maximize comfort.
"It was a big goal to keep it functional and looking stylish," Spieth said. "At the end of the day, it looks like an interesting shoe and also looks great on the foot."
By making the most of the fabric's ability to change through heating, molding and pressing, designers were able to eliminate most reinforcement materials and non-recycled components.
The recycled material's lighter weight and excellent thermal conductivity make it a smart choice for runners, the company said. Eco-fi material is about 10 percent lighter than cotton and keeps out the cold better than nylon or wool.
Eco-fi is also a hydrophobic fiber, which repels water to keep feet dry and clean. The newSKY shoe for men and women will be available for purchase in stores and online in October, the company said.

How to Plant Trees to Conserve Energy
Winter Windbreak
Planting the right trees in the right places conserves energy and reduces your energy bills, while helping to fight climate change. See how properly placed trees save energy by providing summer shade, winter warmth, and winter windbreaks.
Planting a row of conifer trees on the north and northwest sides of your property creates a wall against cold winter winds—saving your heating costs by up to 30%. Once again…
- you use less energy
- the utility company uses less energy
- less fossil fuel is consumed by the utility to create the energy
- less fossil fuel consumption means less carbon dioxide emissions
The best protection from wind occurs when the windbreak is no more than the distance of one or two tree heights from the house.
The down-wind side of the trees is where the most snow accumulates, so plant your windbreak a one or two tree-height distance from your rooftop and driveway if you can.

Alright, here goes. First things first I did a search and could not find my situation so I'm starting a new thread. Doing a kitchen reno and in that replaced the dishwasher (herein DW). To make things more accessible incase there is trouble down the road I want to change the plumbing. The old DW plumbing was typical, drain going to the sink plumbing and tied in with a DW tee. DW supply also came off the sink plumbing.
Wher the DW will sit is directly above my furnace room, and the point of entry of all water and the main drain/stack. I want to plumb the supply from the basement (no problem here) and tie the DW drain in to the basement as well. I've included a diagram (which is attached) of what I want to do. I think I've included all pertinant info, if you need anything else just let me know. The house is a 4 level sidesplit, with the kitchen being directly above the lowest/basment floor. Obviously there is more plumbing but it is irrelevant (IMHO).
Please provide feedback on this install, am I up to code? Do we see any issues with the plumbing and if so what do I need to change.The new plumbing is circled.
Thanks in advance for all your help.

text: I hate strawberries, mostly cause the texture I think rather than the taste, maybe its the tiny pulp like things in it that I dont like, but I love pulp in my orange juice? I drink that a lot so I don't get scurvy because in 7th grade a kid with a beard told me that if I didn't drink it I'd get scurvy and I figured he was right, after all scurvy sounded very pirate like and this kid was in 7th grade and looked like a pirate himself. My friend has the Jack Sparrow tattoo, but I think she just loves Johnny Depp and doesn't really wanna be a pirate. I'd like to live my life as a gyspie someday, I think that'd be pretty cool just skating all day and doing whatever you want and traveling a lot. I think i like that cause I love road tripping and seeing new places, I love going on adventures its pretty fun just living in the moment and its something I hope I never grow out of. I mean you can't let little things in life bum you out when there are way bigger things in life that can make you way happier. Even just the sun shine and a beautiful day should be more than enough to make any one smile. So that's what I try to do, is just smile because it seems to make other people smile too.

The Woman Who Laughed at God
The Untold History of the Jewish People

Summary of The Woman Who Laughed at God Summary of The Woman Who Laughed at God Reviews for The Woman Who Laughed at God An Excerpt from The Woman Who Laughed at God
Who is a Jew? In this colorful, eye-opening work, bestselling author and lecturer Jonathan Kirsch takes us on a three-thousand-year tour of Jewish identity and diversity and offers answers to this complex and difficult question. Kirsch reveals that Judaism has never been a religion of strict and narrow orthodoxy. For every accepted tradition in Jewish faith there are countertraditions rooted in biblical antiquity: the Maccabee freedom fighters who closed the Bible and picked up swords, dervish-like ecstatics who claimed to enjoy direct communication with God even after they had been excommunicated by a distrustful rabbinate, and courageous men and women who were the forgotten heroes of the Holocaust. With drama and narrative verve, Kirsch explores these and many other "Judaisms" that make up the rich tapestry of Jewish identity.
"A grand story, grandly told." —Chicago Tribune
"An entertaining tour of Jewish history." —The Washington Post
"Kirsch's well-written reexamination of Jewish history has contributed to Jewish survival." —Publishers Weekly

I made this topic on insanelyac.com but nobody wants to respond to the thread. Hoping I'll have more luck here. (this is just a copy paste from other forum)
Striker II Extreme Motherboard (790i)
QX6850 Core 2 Extreme (Quad Core)
8GB's of RAM.
Heres my problem. I have sound working and everything else besides internet. So, I ask the community here for help. What's my best approach to to getting my internet working? Also, the tutorials here are soo daunting that I can barely read them. Should almost be in a book formatted into pdf. Crazy. I'd appreciate it if someone could just explain how to fix my net, rather then linking me to a tutorial. Thanks in advance. I have no clue what I'm doing, but I absolutely need the internet.
Also, I'm currently running 4GB's of ram, can I throw in my other 4 without having any problems?
EDIT: I used multibeast and accidentily installed the network kext for intel 82566 gigabyte ethernet driver. I don't know how to remove this specific kext because I can't find the kext name. Does it even matter that I installed it? I've also been trying to install eno's nForceLAN driver 0.64.6 that I found on the forums. But i still dont have any luck with the internet.
Sigh. . . I've tried everything that I possibly can. Still no net. I've tried nForceLan.kext but it says it's been installed wrong or it's out of date. I updated to 10.6.5, but I can't imagine that that's the problem I'm having. This is completely mindwrecking. Anyone have any ideas?
Edit:2 I reinstalled os x and tried to install the nForceLAN.kext and still no luck. After that didn't work I tried running multibeast again and tried to install the intel network kext from the list, and that didn't work. I tried to install the updated IONetworkFamily.kext and that didn't work. WTF am I doing wrong? I als, my lights are working like they should on the port.

Acetal is a tough, stable engineering thermoplastic with a high modulus of elasticity, high strength, good rigidity, dimensional stability, resistance to moisture, solvents and other chemicals. It has very desirable toughness properties, performing well at extreme temperatures and under fatigue endurance.
Acetal is easily machined with excellent dimensional stability for close tolerance parts. A low coefficient of friction and excellent wear properties, especially in wet or moist environments, make it easy to see why Acetal is one of the most widely used engineering thermoplastics available today.

The sys admin's daily grind: PortSentry
Ten Years After
To celebrate 10 years of his column, Charly sets up a sensitive detector that measures the cosmic background radiation of the Internet.
Scanning the ports on a machine belonging to someone else is not generally regarded as an attack. Of course, any serious attack will be preceded by a port scan. Administrators who take their security seriously always take a proactive approach to port scans, such as blocking the IP address that initiated the port scan for an extended period of time. The tool that lets you do this goes by the name of PortSentry [1] and is included in most distributions. The daemon identifies and logs port scans and runs commands after doing so.

It was Saturday 22 March, 1997, on a chilly afternoon in the north-east, when Chelsea supporters were exposed to the benefits of acquiring new talent from the footballing hot-bed of Brazil.
After evading both Dennis Wise and Roberto Di Matteo in one quick movement, the Middlesbrough Number 10 slipped the ball into the path of Mikkel Beck, before meeting the resulting cross with a stunning diving header which gave Frode Grodas no chance, condemning us to a 1-0 defeat.
The man in question on that day at the Riverside Stadium was Juninho, a player Bryan Robson, Middlesbrough's manager at the time, had signed from Sao Paulo after usurping a host of Europe's top clubs, and while Blues fans would have to wait 15 years for our very own technically-gifted Brazilian from the same city with a penchant for spectacular goals, the arrival of Oscar has been worth the wait.
Signed from Internacional last summer, the 21-year-old attacker has been one of our most consistent performers over the course of the first half of the season, playing regularly alongside Juan Mata and Eden Hazard tucked in behind the striker.
Here in Japan, as the majority of our first team squad prepare to make their bow in the FIFA Club World Cup, Oscar, somewhat surprisingly given his age, is getting ready to appear in the competition for the second time, having represented his former club back in 2010.
'I've been to Japan before with the Brazil Under-20s national team, it's a very nice place and I'm looking forward to participating in the Club World Cup again,' he tells the official Chelsea website.
'I'm very happy to have the opportunity to take part in the competition for the second time, it's a very important tournament in Brazil, and across the world, so I'm looking forward to it.
'Last time out I was 19-years-old, but we didn't manage to win it, so I just hope that this time I can have a great competition and win it with Chelsea.'
Competing in the tournament two years ago was an important chapter in Oscar's development, but while the experience as a whole is something he will always treasure, his first game in the competition will be remembered for all the wrong reasons.
Internacional, like Chelsea, joined the competition at the semi-final stage, where they were drawn to play Congolese side TP Mezembe, and they, along with the majority of the watching world, were stunned when the minnows emerged with a well-earned victory.
'It was one of those things that happen in football,' he explains. 'We were all surprised because we knew our team was superior to theirs.
'We tried everything we could to score a goal but it was one of those days where the ball just wouldn't go in the net.
'Mezembe scored to go 1-0 up, and while we did everything in our power to try and secure a draw, it wasn't possible. It was unbelievable at the time, and what made it worse was the fact that we knew we had the quality to win that game and then beat Inter as our team was very strong. It really was a major disappointment.'
The shock defeat meant that Internacional, rather than facing Internazionale - who were managed at the time by Rafael Benitez - in the final as they'd hoped, would have to take on Seongnam Ilhwa in a play-off for third place.
The Brazilian side raced into 4-0 lead, and while Seongnam did pull two goals back late in the game, Internacional's superior quality enabled them to see the game out comfortably.
For Oscar, the victory was scant consolation for their early exit. However, he was pleased with the response of his team-mates, ensuring they finished the tournament in a positive manner.
'I didn't take part in the second game, but I remember it well because we were all feeling so down after losing to Mezembe,' he recalls.
All we were thinking about was meeting Inter - who had already qualified - in the final, and we were confident we could beat them.
'Unfortunately it wasn't to be, but luckily we managed to pull ourselves together, get our minds focused and win the last game, which enabled us to finish third in the overall standings.'
The nature of the draw for this season's Club World Cup ensures there is every possibility that the Blues, at some point, could come up against Corinthians, a team Oscar knows only too well from his playing days back home.
The Brazilian club are renowned for their vociferous support, and Oscar is fully expecting to see them descend on Japan in their droves, warning that the number of fans they bring to the tournament is likely to be well in excess of the predicted 10,000.
'I've played many times against Corinthians and it would be great if this fixture happened and we were able to meet in Japan,' says Oscar. 'However, I have learnt from past experience with Internacional that you have to take one game at a time.
'Of course, before you get to the final you have to play a semi-final but anything can happen. If we get to the final - which I hope we do - and have to face Corinthians, it will be great for me personally to play against a Brazilian side, but I will be doing my best to help Chelsea win the game.
'With regards to the 10,000, that's probably the amount of supporters who already have tickets in their hands, but you can expect many more.
'Corinthians have the largest fan base in Brazil and it's seen as a very important competition back home, so you should expect to see the stadiums filled with Corinthian supporters.'
Oscar has featured in all but one of our Premier League games so far this campaign, having made his Chelsea debut as a late substitute in the opening-day victory at Wigan Athletic.
His first start, in the Champions League game against Juventus at Stamford Bridge, saw the youngster make an instant impact, scoring two goals - the second of which will live long in the memory - and turning in an accomplished display which helped nullify the threat of Andrea Pirlo.
Perhaps surprisingly given his background, what has impressed supporters most about Oscar is not his unquestionable ability when in possession, but rather his work-rate and desire to win the ball back when it's surrendered and, thus far, he is pleased with how the move has worked out.
'I started off being eased into the team, and then I started my first match in the Champions League against Juventus and scored two goals,' he recalls fondly.
'Since then, I have been a regular in the first team, which has been great and something I really appreciate.
'I hope this can continue so I can grow and improve with every game I play for Chelsea. I'm very happy to be wearing the Chelsea shirt and to be able to help my team-mates and win games with them, so I hope I can continue my progression in order to help the club win many trophies.
'I'm very pleased with how I've adapted to the move and everything, so far, is going very well. I get along with all of the players, which is nice, and the only problem I have is the language. However, I'm picking it up quite quickly, I'm learning and I can communicate quite well with most of my team-mates. Off the pitch, I enjoy living in London, so I'm very happy at the moment.'
Of course, Oscar's decision to swap a relatively comfortable life in Brazil for a far more challenging proposition - on and off the pitch - in England comes with its own risks, particularly taking his tender years into account.
Adapting to a different lifestyle and culture is the type of transition anybody, regardless of their age, would find tricky, but thankfully for Oscar, on the field of play there aren't too many significant differences between his former and new homes.
'I think in England the league is more competitive and slightly more intense. The Premier League is one of the best leagues in the world, with some of the best players in the world,' he acknowledges.
'Most players across the world would love to have an opportunity to play in this country and it's great to be here.
'The biggest difference between the two leagues is that over here it's more dynamic, whereas in Brazil it's probably a bit more technical. The pace of the game in England is frenetic, but I love playing here.'
Our inaugural Club World Cup appearance is a sign of just how far the club have come in a relatively short period of time.
The Champions League triumph is a night that nobody connected with Chelsea will ever forget, but having been soundly beaten by Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Super Cup back in August, Oscar admits the Club World Cup has now taken on extra significance.
'I think we, as players, are all taking this competition very seriously. It's a very important trophy for every club and for the career of every individual,' he says.
'We are going to prepare for the competition extremely well, and the fact that it's the first time the club have taken part makes it even more important.'
For the record, Chelsea had the last laugh over Juninho and Middlesbrough in 1997, beating them in the one that really mattered - the FA Cup final at Wembley. Juninho, on that particular day, was a relatively peripheral figure, and his fellow countryman will be hopeful of having a far greater impact over the course of the next few days here in Japan.
Chelsea TV will be broadcasting our games at the FIFA Club World Cup LIVE for fans in the UK and Ireland.

If you just got a new iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad then you've also got Notification Center. It's Apple's attempt to bring order and sanity to the myriad alarms, alerts, messages, calls, announcements, and game challenges that flood our daily lives. But first you may need to bring order and sanity to Notification Center.
iOS notifications are presented in one of three different ways: Lock screen notifications, Notification Center, banners and popups. All of the implementations show the icon of the app issuing the notification to the left, and a brief except of the alert content to the right. All three, however, work in different ways.
If your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad is asleep (i.e. the screen is dark), Lock screen notifications will light it up briefly and show it to you. That way, if your device is sitting on a table nearby, you'll see the notification come in and be able to deal with it immediately if you want to. If you don't want to deal with a notification immediately, the Lock screen will keep a list of all the new ones for you, and show them to you the next time you wake up your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad.
Depending on how many notifications come in, and what kind of notifications they are, you'll be presented with them in one of a few different ways.
You can slide notification icons to unlock your iPhone, iPod, or iPad, just as you would the normal slide to unlock control. Unlocking with the icon will send you straight to the app that issued the alert, and to the specific alert within that app.
Once you unlock, you also clear all Lock screen notifications.
When you're using your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad you can pull down Notification Center at any time by swiping downwards from the status bar. It can be dismissed by swiping back up from the small gripper icon at the bottom of the screen.
When Notification Center is open, it can display a Weather and/or Stocks widgets on the iPhone or iPod touch, and a Sharing widget on all iOS devices. (Because the iPad has no built-in Weather or Stocks apps, it has no Weather or Stock widgets in Notification Center.) If you don't like the location shown in the Weather widget, or the stocks listed in the Stock widget, or if you just want to turn one or all of them off entirely, you can configure them in the Settings app.
Tapping the Weather or Stock widget will take you to the Weather or Stocks app. Tapping the Twitter or Facebook button on the Sharing widget will open a Tweet or Facebook post sheet.
On all iOS devices, Notification Center can also display a list of pending notifications. Each list is headed by the corresponding app icon and name to the left, the date if it's for the calendar, and a far-too-tiny X icon to the right. If you don't like the default organization, you can change it in Settings app.
Tapping the X icon clears all notifications for that app. Tapping anywhere on the alert will take you to the app to view the information. You can control which apps and how many notifications per app are displayed in Settings.
When your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad is unlocked and new notification comes in, a banner or popup notification will appear.
Banner notifications are typically used for non-urgent notifications like messages, mail, game challenges -- even turn-by-turn navigation directions. They show up briefly at the top of the screen and are animated with a roll down, roll back up effect. Tapping a Notification Banner sends you to the app that issued the alert and shows you the information. While far less obtrusive than the old-style popup notifications, the Banners can still obscure information and obstruct buttons, and when they roll-down unexpectedly can cause you to accidentally tap them rather then the top bar or button you'd begun to tap.
If a banner is getting in your way, you can touch them, pull slightly, and flick them away (technically you're beginning to pull down the Notification Center shade, which dismisses them, and then pushing the shade away again all in one smooth curve.
Popups are usually used for urgent notifications like alarms, reminders, and appointments. They pop up in the center of the screen and won't go away until you acknowledge you received them.
If you don't want popups or banners for a certain app, you can turn them off in Settings or if you just want to mute them temporarily, you can use Do Not Disturb.
If you need more help setting up, using, or trouble-shooting Notification Center on iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, or Mac, head on over to our iOS forum and ask away!
Cool stuff, thank you! love how your teaching style makes everything so clear.
With my old iPhone 4 if I got a email while my phone was locked when I unlocked my phone the banner would then display. Since upgrading to iPhone 5 @ ios 6 this no longer happens. Was this option removed or did I miss something with settings?
I have my new iPhone5. Whenever I have a new notification, it doesn't show in the lock screen even though in the notification center I have specified that I wanted to see notifications in the lock screen! Instead, the phone only lights for a while, and then goes back to lock screen. I only see missed calls or messages if I unlock the phone!
Can you please tell me why this is happening??
Thank youuuu!
My notification centre doenst slide down even if I have pulled it down.. Can u tell me why??
Can't get my notifications to stay on my I phone 5 while using twitter I have to keep going on my chosen 5 every few minutes to re add turn on notifications with in min there off again ? Can any one help ?

S2 SD tivos rebooting ????
Posted 21 November 2012 - 03:40 PM
Posted 22 November 2012 - 07:58 PM
I ordered a new hr24 to replace my hr10-250 that was constantly rebooting. If I don't need the new hr24 now (the hr10 is hooked to an sd crt tv) is there any problem with just keeping it until I do need it sometime. I know back in the day when i would buy a receiver at Best Buy I was told it had to be authorized within 30 days. Does anyone know if there is still such a policy? I ordered the Hr24 from Dishbuys.com and would have to pay a restocking fee and shipping if I returned it. I have several HD dvr's including an Hr20-700 so I wouldn't mind just keeping the Hr24 for later use.
IF you deactivated the the HR20 and replace it with the HR24 they will not want the HR20 back so you can keep it around as a spare. It will only ever work on your account though, so don't try selling it or anything.. . Although,I don't see why you wouldn't just replace the TiVo anyway.
